Connecting the camera via an access point

If you connect a camera that supports access point registration, you can establish a Wi-Fi connection between the camera and Creators' App via an access point. Once the camera is connected via an access point, camera images can be imported to Creators' App and then uploaded to the cloud while your smartphone remains connected to the internet and without interrupting the Wi-Fi connection.

  • Visit the following website for cameras that support access point registration.
